Biomechanics of a Soccer Kick

Abstract: A 13 page paper discussing the components of a soccer kick. Running and kicking are the two primary activities that individual players must master in the game of soccer. Each has been studied extensively in terms of biomechanics, and each has application in other sports. The purpose here is to provide a qualitative biomechanical analysis of the soccer kick in terms of force, velocity, acceleration, angular velocity, moment of inertia and angle of release. Includes 4 diagrams. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
